-Armadillo can use the ATLAS library for faster versions of a subset
-of LAPACK and BLAS functions. LAPACK should still be installed to
-obtain full functionality.

-Caveat: the minimum recommended version of ATLAS is 3.10;
-earlier versions (such as 3.6 and 3.8) can produce incorrect
-results and/or corrupt memory, leading to random crashes.
